Hahaha. Oh you haters.

"F*** YOU SE, WHY WON'T YOU UPDATE THE X10!?!"

SE: "We'll update the X10 to Gingerbread."

"F*** YOU SE, WHY ARE YOU DOING WHAT WE ASKED YOU TO DO?!"

Anyway, this is awesome news! I'm getting an upgrade to the Arc from my carrier however, so, it's not such useful news for me.. but, awesome anyway!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G-FACE:
Excellent news! Not that i was not happy with my phone, but now i am twice as happier :P

Thanks to Z and J and all of our DEVS for showing up those chumps at SE...

Love my X10 so much!!!lol
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dante2086:
This is just digusting.

They said they wouldn't update, y'all complained that they should give u froyo.

Instead, they bring Gingerbread, and some people are still complaining.

If they are doing it for u, or themselves, doesn't f**king matter, they brought it.

STOP *****ING.

There's just no pleasing some people.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darth Glacious:
Sony Ericsson is doing this out of shame, not more than 2 days ago I posted on their blog to show them the excellent work done here by Wolfbreak, jerpelea and the others.

Now they come up to say they will do Gingerbread? Who in God's name thinks they are doing it for the end-users they have screwed up so many times before?!

They are doing it because they have been shamed in all the industry by their incompetence compared with what a few passionate developers can do.

And anyway, our own custom Gingerbread will be ready long before the one from Sony Ericsson.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agentJBM:
You must have me confused with someone else. I have never said this has anything to do with the bypass. In fact, read my posts. I have been saying that this has been in the works for some time and SE could care less if the bootloader is cracked. The bootloader crew is less than 5% of users. I am the one who reported this news was leaked by SE Brazil 2 months ago.

This has nothing to do with immediate Arc sales to current X10 owners. We all have at least a year left on our contracts. However, they may not have wanted to advertise the X10 was getting 2.3 during the same period they were promoting the release of the Arc to "current" consumers who are in the market now for a new device.

You flip flop on your point of view for every post. Go take care of your family.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TechGuru_x10:
You are stupid, no doubt abt it.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agentJBM:
Don't forget arrogant and pompous and delusional. Hop on the misinformation band wagon.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] filas312:
We all know what's that about - giving us Gingerbread and hoping that'll be enough to stop the progress of the bootloader cracking ;) Still, looking forward to it, I'm actually happy that they've shown at least a bit of support.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bwyan Benton:
Well said!!! +1
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] junxlee:
This is great news. Hope it doesnt get delayed or anything. =]
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agentJBM:
What is wrong with these people? We get updates every couple months. Four months after 2.1 they give us multi touch and 2.3 both were said never to happen. I can't think of another phone who has gotten this much support.

I am more ashamed at some of the X10 users than I could ever have been with SE.

To error is human. To forgive is devine. To right a wrong is priceless. Way to go SE.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barrac28:
Strange that Sony announced an update shortly after Xda bypasses the kernel.

We must boycott SE at the risk of blocking access to the kernel!

Sorry for my bad english

I'm French^^
[XPERIA X8 General] Terdroblade:
Looks like all the QQ did some good. For x10 owners at least.

http://blogs.sonyericsson.com/products/¸

P.S. Probably has something to do with the x10 bootloader being bypassed and the good progress devs are having with loading custom kernels.
[XPERIA X8 General] Asdoos:
yes i think also SE is scared about loosing conrtol about there own devices. So they want to bind us again to themselfe.
[XPERIA X8 General] Boshe:
Yeah,we already know that :)
[XPERIA X8 General] kecil26:
nope we already got 2.3..through xda dev :D
[XPERIA X8 General] muzik_demon:
Meh! Again we are left high and dry.We didn't get dual touch update either and now this too.

Why can't we get both x10 and x8 ,2.3, because SE doesn't have resources. And here we have J providing gingerbread to entire xperia series with help of some devs!
[XPERIA X8 General] doixanh:
They have to prioritize their team to provide 2.3 for only X10. While most work to bring CM7 to X10/X10mini/X8 has been done by only 2 devs: jerpelea and racht. Such a shame to SE.
[XPERIA X8 General] CaptainZap:
What a ****ty news, I feel like smashing my phone in S.E. face... hope no S.E. worker gets in my sight cause I am mad as hell! I mean come on, I was ok with the 2.1 on all current xperia line but this ? WTF is with this discrimination, F*** THEM!
[XPERIA X8 General] XperianPro:
Wait,xperia line was always updated together and new cerficated update was relased on 23 of march for x8.

Please sony update x8 and x10 minis too.
[XPERIA X8 General] fifo171:
if they won't update x8 to 2.3 or 2.2, i won't buy another SE phone !!! never !!! and i think that i'm not the only one
[XPERIA X8 General] kecil26:
i hope se have some time to read this thread :D
[XPERIA X8 General] mati96PL:
I will break forum rules now...

SSSSSSSHHHHHIIIIITTTT

SONY IS A SHHHHHIIIITTTTIIINNNNGGG ****!!!!
[XPERIA X8 General] thedailycommute:
I love my X8 but...

Don't get me wrong, I love my X8. However this is the first, and last, time I shall ever buy a Sony phone. I only bought mine last December, after a big Christmas marketing push by Vodafone here in Portugal. Imagine my dismay (and disgust!) to discover,

after less than a month

, that Sony already considered the phone obsolete before I'd even bought it :-(

Oh well. Live and learn I suppose (but it also makes me much less likely to buy anything Sony in the future...)
[XPERIA X8 General] droidjens:
Rendering my x8 obsolete after only 4 months after seeing 1 proper update (1.6 --> 2.1)... not good.

Was planning to upgrade to Xperia Play, but I no longer trust SonyEricsson and have given up all plans of buying any of their products again.

That being said, XDA makes the x8 a very decent little phone. But still the XDA devs are fighting an up-hill struggle against the lockdowns imposed by SE. Thank you XDA, screw you SonyEricsson ;)
[XPERIA X8 General] XperianPro:
on sonyericsson lauch blog writes no plain,not we will not upgrade x8 and minis just no plain

the real idea is to bypass bootloader so sony ericsson will update x8
[XPERIA X8 General] Compwxr:
Well mates, I think it's time to make some noise in SE blogs, this is not only a discrimination, this feels like your older brother was given by it's mother a bigger and better toy to play with, and we, the younger sons, can play with lego for eternity. Ah... This is a lack of respect, lack of sense, we do not only need that upgrade, we need recon. We are costumers, we spent our money buying the phones, we are SE future, our opinions and thoughts will count in next sales. We can't just be left behind, I know SE certified some firmwares recently, but, if they were thinking to upgrade us, they would have done it now at same time as X10.

Well it seems this is a way too give further security to bootloader, and remove kexec exploit. There's no downgrading after this. It's a terrible choice (my thought). So, we (x8,x10mini/pro owners) don't really need this upgrade since we have J & racht & so many great developers contributing, and I have so much to thank them for the hard work, precious time they take to do it, and for sharing it with XDA community, well I can say, with all users around the world. We are very near to reach total freedom.

Regards
[XPERIA X8 General] XperianPro:
That are not full working roms
[XPERIA X8 General] Doomguy:
I hate SE businnes strategy...
[XPERIA X8 General] XperianPro:
Me too but worst is that their profit fall 20% from 2010 and they are so bad to custumers,realy and one more thing why they put so expensive phones in sale,x8 and minis will sell better with better support because they cheap but for 100 $ more i will buy htc wildfire.
[XPERIA X8 General] LuisDias:
Cmo eu te compreendo, a mim foi exactamente igual.. xD

I made exactly the same mistake.. :/
[XPERIA X8 General] bogdan_mihai554:
Sony want this upgrade, and maybe this software update will also bring an bootloader upgrade, which will give us no chance of Xrecovery or Root, So, i stay with XDA :D:):p
[XPERIA X8 General] bogdan_mihai554:
DuDe, we don't need SE crap, we got XDA Gingerbread and FroYo ^_^
[XPERIA X8 General] bogdan_mihai554:
That's SO FUNNY! When we got Xrecovery going, SE launched android 2.1, When we cracked bootloader on X10, sony said they'll do gingerbread, so that means if we crack X8 they'll do Ginger for us....SE scamers...Hate Em...I mean, i love Sony Ericsson's hardware, but the software is just plain s***, if you wanna buy a sony, buy it for hardware, and software from XDA, the best choice ^_^
[XPERIA X8 General] DarkThanos:
So ... We pay se . Se gets ready the software free from google and instead of edit it for our x8 and x10 minis ... some devs do their work for free...

This way of profit that use the big companies has to stop...

So just because x10 has the double price this means that se cant pay their handreds of programmers to "edit" a software for us too?

2 devs are doing the work of a big company....

And its not the first time.

THE ONLY THING THAT LEFT FOR SE TO DO IS TO DOWNLOAD RATCH'S ROM CHANGE SOME UI AND GIVE IT TO US FOR UPDATE.

Ps: se knows that their software is rubbish so... they locked bootloader.
[XPERIA X8 General] saugatdb:
who cares if SE is not providing 2.3 for X8, me & many more users already have 2.3.3 installed in their phones thanks to racht & J

~Cheers :)
[XPERIA X8 General] Sgt-Hartley:
I agree I use 2.3.3 by j on my x8 and it's great. But I do also think it would be good if se made froyo official. the custom roms are great and no disrespect to ratcht and jerpelea they still have minor bugs. But the work they have done so far is nothing short of amazing. These two guys alone make x8 a much better phone than se will ever do.
[XPERIA X8 General] Compwxr:
Some of you guys forget that a big part of x8 x10 mini pro and big users dont have sufficient knowledge to install custom roms neither know of their existence. We are priveligiated users that do know that we dont depend from se but that dont mean the others dont diserve it as well...
[XPERIA X8 General] monkeyxox:
I'm a chinese student and my EN is soso
[XPERIA X8 General] muzik_demon:
The thing with official update is we will get kernel support for things missing in the custom roms, like native usb tethering and wifi hotspot capabilities and app2sd(we have added module to support it).

But now we got the ability to bypass the se kernel , hopefully we get all these features plus more like overclocking :D,multitouch(if possible) .

J was able to overclock x10 to 1.11ghz!

Sent from my X8
[XPERIA X8 General] sendalterbang:
hm

se soft is HOAK

XDA is "OKEH ,TOP BUANGET"

keep up the good work
[XPERIA X8 General] rstdnm:
Who needs SE?

X10 gets an update probably because it costs much more than the mini or X8.

I came across the article from TalkAndroid and it didn't really set off any bells.

Didn't care because we've already got the devs and I bet they're making better progress than SE.

so what do I say?

Don't mind it.

SE's just trying to not get sued by a million people.

---

BTW, I think the devs' ROMs look waay cooler than SE's :D
[XPERIA X8 General] fengyehero:
I am responsible, if not update X8 SE 2.3, this will be my last purchase of his machine.
[XPERIA X8 General] :
Actually, I got a response from Sony Ericsson after 3 emails. The lady said "Referring to the Android 2.2, we may advice you to give us a call in the middle of this year to get more information on this software."

There will be no multitouch, she said. Also, there will be no trade in deal in regards to getting one of the newer phones.
[XPERIA X8 General] :
I agree so much. I bought the phone in November of 2010, thinking it would be good. due to it being Sony Ericsson. How disappointed I was when I heard the news of no multitouch or Froyo. My brother got a Galaxy S, and compared to that, my phone is a crappy plastic paperweight. I was so PO'd when he got it, I nearly swore everyone I passed.
[XPERIA X8 General] xdelapan:
well i think if X10 uprgaded to 2.3 then X8 will gain officially 2.3 too , on XDA Dev. off course :D. it's unfair that SE only relelase for the X10. Or maybe they think that the other xperia family's hardware not support for 2.3? they should be stay in this XDA threads i little bit longer.
[XPERIA X8 General] XperianPro:
Maybe SE is not so bad and maybe we get 2.2
[XPERIA X8 General] xdelapan:
very glad to hear that, according to SE statement "there will be no update plan for x8 platforms":D
[XPERIA X8 General] treebill:
crack to x8 boot loader and they will roller an update by mid this year ;) i would buy a new phone but i don't have the money so ill stick with the custom ROM's sure they crash with root apps and logging out of skype buy meh :P
[XPERIA X8 General] Charmed :):
Ahahhaa, who are you kidding (accept yourself) :P

SE are lying group of people and I'm disappointed with their treatment towards their users (one day they say there will be no upgrade and the next day...2.3)

They just won't admit that they are behind in development (unlike htc, samsung or others like huawei...),and are no good at this,and should move to making toasters instead of phones...
[XPERIA X8 General] Graveir:
The truth is that even basic apps like SE home suck extensively :P And I'm really curious if this new update will lock X10 bootloader even further - if so, it's merely a manipulation, not a customer care.

As for the guilt for such a situation - to the best of my knowledge, Sony is responsible for hardware only, while Ericsson creates software solutions, so we should blame Ericsson, since hardware of our X8 is really good, taking price into account ;)

Anyway, I'm eager to see X8 bootlader cracked, and all those new drivers that our devs could create to make this phone sooo much better than SE could ever hope to ;) Though it's a little sad that their work will be used by SE even as a passive marketing. Too bad we don't have enough funds to create XDA phone. It would be the best android smartphone ever ;)
[XPERIA X8 General] XperianPro:
Thanks for info if sony is for hardware he is the best but ericsson for software they are bad maybe sony will think a little with contract with ericsson and change,because people are not buying their phones because ericsson.Go down ericsson or give 2.3.3
[XPERIA X8 General] bogdan_mihai554:
Ur right...Sony are very good at Hardware manufacturing, but when it comes to software...it SUCKS, Bigtime...
[XPERIA X8 General] Graveir:
Well, that's what I've heard - I'm not 100% sure of this hardware-software division between companies ;)
[XPERIA X8 General] :
You know what's funny? I just checked the resale prices on eBay. New, with a 2GB card, it's selling for $200 Canadian or less. This is 4 months after the release. And it came out selling for $350. What does that tell you? My first and last SE phone, for sure.
[XPERIA X8 General] kirilito:
Well, let's at least hope that they will change their minds. They already did it a few times. But definitely my last SE device!!!
[XPERIA X8 General] Charmed :):
Now that we know that SE opened bootloader for new Xperia range, maybe we'll get some stable rom from XDA-dev...luv U guys!:D
[XPERIA X8 General] Tobi@s:
They only opened it for the new 2011 Xperia phones.
[XPERIA X8 General] suaji:
me too.. first & last buy SE phone.. :mad: :mad:
[XPERIA X8 General] rakyatmiskin:
yes man, im agree with that... :D

but i think SE just unlock the bootloader for x8 is good, because of that the custom ROM will have it all fixed... :))
[XPERIA X8 General] bogdan_mihai554:
They only change their mind when you crack their bootloader(just as they did with X10 being upgraded to Gingerbread
[XPERIA X8 General] x-eight:
pff i dont need SE 2.3.3 i have got XDA :D

but ok.. i really hate SE for this!
[XPERIA X8 General] artoseven:
I agree.....
[XPERIA X8 General] :
I've been hearing rumours lately about official Froyo from SE. Who thinks it's true? I got an email from SE in regards to it, and from the official forums.
[XPERIA X8 General] MXR2:
but x8 is 1 of the cheapest reliable android phone out there rite(after rooted+etc)? :X

same here, not recommending SE phones beyond this tier. anything better rather go for HTC or samsung ;X
[XPERIA X8 General] adrian80:
good device X8.

me like it! :D
[XPERIA X8 General] sanefirst:
IMO X8 is the best device you can get for that small amount of money.

With XDA's support, we will get Gingerbread, just be patient!
[XPERIA X8 General] hhht:
hope sony will update to 2.3 :D or we have racht:P
[XPERIA X8 General] junixquiaoit:
even though there will be no update on x8

don't worry, racht and J is there.. lets have our fingers crossed and wish them luck and patience..

lets help them by donating.. cheers!
[XPERIA X8 General] vjun:
Is just ridiculous that a so recently launched phone can't get new updates by SE.

I'm happy with MiniCM 2.2 on my X8, but it would be awesome to have an official Floyo or Gingerbread for X8.

Let's see what happens,but I know that my next phone will not be a SE.

Hi guys, I'm kinda new here so I'm not up to date with all threads about this matter.

I've recently bought a Galaxy S i9000 and was wondering if there's no way to post the check-ins from Google Latitude on facebook.

I've also downloaded the foursquare but the interface and features of Latitude look much better for me.
[LG Optimus 2x] DivInstinct:
Hey guys,

I don't like the unlock screen of LG and want to uninstall it and then install another one like Simply Lockscreen or something else... I find the current LG screen slow, so that's why...

Somebody knows how to do this?

Thanks!
[LG Optimus 2x] larsn84:
Why uninstall?

Just install goto lockscreen or whatever you like and make default. Stock never shows ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] Beeklaan:
Is it possible to have none at all? Couldn't find it.
[LG Optimus 2x] larsn84:
I think you can remove the apk with root explorer from system, but that is not within my knowledge... im having no problems with goto lockscreen though... disables stock, but you need to use GOTO lockscreen then
[LG Optimus 2x] Gilg@mesh:
Tried to find the apk but dont know the name, I also want to remove the stock lockscreen
[LG Optimus 2x] HotlipsH:
Just pull No Lock from Market, then you can toggle Lockscreen on off with a widget... Free and functional
[LG Optimus 2x] .. IkOrE ..:
i've just installed goto lockscreen but i've a problem, if the phone stay in standby for some minutes when i try to unlock with volume buttons don't function and i must use the power buttons. there's a solution?!

sorry for my bad english.
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Your English is good. :)

I have the same problem with WidgetLocker... no solution... :confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] TiGer0:
I tried this app, Screen Tools 1, able to disable the lockscreen & it is able to activate itself during power up.
[LG Optimus 2x] blu3angel:
Is there any way to totally remove the default lock screen and use the stock android one? I hate it cause i can‘t use 3rd party messaging app as it will always show how msgs i have on it and need to enter into the default messaging to clear it..
[LG Optimus 2x] bullyfrog:
Me two.. using widget locker now to recreate the stock android lock screen.. but I hate seeing the lg lock screen when I power on the phone.. i want it annihilated! :D Anyway to replace it with android's?

Sigh.. what I really want is just a vanilla android froyo or ginger on my x2.. is that so hard to wish for??? OK guys, sorry for the rant..

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] O_K:
In flashmode you can reflash the android system on your phone, either with SE's official tool (gives your the latest SE version), or with i.e. flashtool, withch allows you to choose what to flash your phone with.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faelnirv:
Keep off your phone, connect with USB and press Back button. Stop press Back when green LED is here
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prodigy:
Ok, i had to do this twice now, as i bricked it a couple of weeks ago :D

you'll have to reflash with sony ericsson update service here:

http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/sup.../detailed/updateservice/xperiax10?cc=gb&lc=en

Follow the instructions and press the back button before plugging in the cable.

Download the software and keep in mind that playing around with roms will result in these problems so don't go too far.

Hope this helps and good luck :D

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the kid escobar:
Would someone be kind enough to send me a link to a STABLE version of a Swype apk for my Eris. I have tried searching the boards for a file, but I mostly find tuts that either have the newest unstable apk, or are for phones that are not even close to Eris specs. Thanks in advance and I am much obliged.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dan46n2:
I'm not so sure there's a stable swype release for the eris running gsb. I'm pretty sure you are either in the beta and deal with it or you get a different keyboard and deal with that....
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the kid escobar:
I figured there might not be...more or less I want to try if out and see if I like it, I just don't want to install a build that has major bug issues.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dan46n2:
FWIW, I've been running swype beta on GSB and on FroShedYo's, xtr's, etc.. and the only bug that I've found that's consistant (to me) is that after you reboot, you have to long-press a text field to change input method back to the regular keyboard and back to swype before it will work...Otherwise, it works great for me again until I reboot.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dabeersboys:
Stable

I have a version that was sent to me that I haven't run into any problems with.

email me if you want the apk. I'm thinking about trying it out on my archos 101 tablet.
